Never Tuesday
A day like any other
Not if you’re her mother
Robbed of love by fate
That did not hesitate
To fill a well of tears
An ocean over years
If I could take your place
Just once to see your face
A moment to embrace
Draw from the deck an ace
Of hearts, time and space
Never Tuesday
No matter what you say
No more happy birthday
With these tears I pray
Until they fade away
Never Tuesday
Every step a mile
Every breath your smile
The one I gave to you
Nothing else will do
In your eyes I see
You looking back at me
The anchor of my faith
If I could touch your face
There’s nothing to replace
Roses, white and lace
A day that never comes
As I face another one
Never Tuesday
No matter what you say
No more happy birthday
With these tears I pray
Until they fade away
Never Tuesday
Starting with tomorrow
Nothing left to borrow
Nothing left but sorrow
Tomorrow
Blood runs from my nose
It’s yours but no one knows
And mine, they are the same
There’s no one left to blame
I wash myself from shame
Forever we remain
Never Tuesday
No matter what you say
With these tears I pray
Until they fade away
Never Tuesday
